When executing an Action from Dialog Boxes category, Automation Workshop displays a dialog window and requires user to answer a yes-no question, input a value or specify a folder.
Dialog Boxes can have custom title, fixed or automatically generated text as their contents. Dialog boxes are visually emphasized by graphical icons and can be instantly brought to the foreground to grab user attention. Use the Text to Speech Action—Talk in the background feature to makes dialog boxes even more interactive!
